Ghostbusters (the 2016 version) is a female led, modern version of the original Ghostbusters that came out in 1984. The movie revolves around, Erin Gilbert, a physicist who teaches and conducts research at Columbia university. She is on the verge of receiving a ten year contract from the prestigious university, but when the owner of a mansion comes to Erin asking for paranormal help, as he shows her a book on paranormal activity that Erin co-wrote, Dr. Gilbert soon discovers that the other co-author of the novel, Abby, posted the book on amazon. Because she fears that if fellow colleagues discover the book she'll get fired, Erin goes to Abby, who's a paranormal researcher and used to be Erin's best friend, and requests that the book be put down from amazon. After chatting for a little bit, Erin discovers that Abby has a new partner, Jillian, who happens to be an excellent engineer capable of building all of the wildest inventions that Abby wants to be made. When Erin explains why she's there, Abby and Jillian eventually go to the mansion and attempt to find any possible paranormal activity. However, since Erin still wants to get the book put down, she follows them there as a way to ensure that she gets her way, but she has no idea what she is about to get herself into. The trio soon discovers a ghost, catch it on film, and before they know it, they begin starting their own plan to be the first scientists to prove that ghosts exist. The team soon gains a new partner in Patty Tolan, a New Yorker who's spent her entire life in the state and knows all of the ins and outs as well as the history of the city. The team tries to find and capture reported ghosts, but they soon meet an unusual threat that plans on releasing 1,000s of ghosts into New York City and letting them wreck pure chaos on the entire world. 
 Ghostbusters certainly isn't perfect, but it proves to be a fun movie that has its highlights. The movie has a few fantastic moments and is overall a solid remake of the creative original. This movie is more of a comedy than the original and has scores of witty moments that take advantage of the insanely talented cast that proves to succeed with making audiences receive an enjoyable experience. Chris Hemsworth showcases his acting brilliance and manages to thrive in a position that most would probably assume wouldn't be a good fit. He adds an intriguing level of humor and masculinity to the movie, which ends up managing to compliment with the very pro girl-power tone of the movie that is sure to empower females all across the globe. However, the classic version of Ghostbusters basically triumphs over this movie in every department, except for comedy, because the plot, execution, and concept of the original is just on a far higher level. 

 The beginning of the movie does a fairly good job of introducing audiences to the movie world and all of the characters as well as their relationships with one another. The middle of the movie does a decent job of progressing the movie along and manages to combine ghosts, science fiction, and jokes into one to create an immensely entertaining portion of the movie. Even though the ending of Ghostbusters is not spectacular, it manages to get the job done and end the movie sufficiently. The vivid visual effects of the movie are surprisingly superb and help to illuminate the film's goals, as well as make the ghosts come to life even more, giving this movie a slight advantage in that department over the classic original.

 Ghostbusters seems to do a fine job of entertaining audiences, but it really isn't loved by anyone. Rotten Tomatoes gave the movie a fair 74%, but a very weak amount of Google users liked the movie. In fact, a puny 54% of Google users liked the movie, which is actually incredibly low and borderlines being pathetic. Usually, it's common to find movies with roughly 80% or higher amounts of Google users liking the movie, and there really isn't that obvious of a reason for fans not really liking the movie. This movie seems to be catered towards a younger age group, and that same group is known for actually liking or disliking movies, so this is definitely concerning for the film. 

 Although the original is still better, this new female-led version of Ghostbusters tries its hardest and even though it doesn't even come somewhat close to being as good, at the end of the day, it is still definitely worth watching and is a good fit for just about anyone and everyone, since it is catered towards a younger audience, because there isn't too much violence, cursing, or truly frightening moments, and it is also part comedy.
